When importing slides from other presentations, the graphics (even charts from Excel) change colors depending on what background design I use. I wouldn't mind if the colors they change to actually went well with the background, but they change to colors that are probably the WORST possible color choice. Is there any way I can somehow lock the colors of the graphics in imported slides and only change the background design? I also need to preserve the animations in the graphics - so I can't simply paste the graphics as a picture. Seems to me, graphics (lines, shapes, etc.) should be able to be dropped in from an outside source without being tied to and affected by a design color scheme. No reason for a red fire engine to change to blue.



Thanks for any solutions or suggestions out there.
